In every area of working life today we are all looking for continuous improvements to reduce waste, increase efficiency and still deliver a quality product. We are going to look at how the tools for continuous improvement can be used in the education sector to help you as leaders make improvements. The keys for continuous improvement are Have the majority on-board with the changes you want to implement (there will always be some against any form of change).

Changes should be incremental, whole sale changes cause confusion and can lead to animosity. The process should be fluid where all stake holders feel they have a voice in the process. Using GEMBA, 5 WHYS, CAPA and MUDA-MURA-MURI you will have tools (and forms) to help you look for waste and develop a culture of continuous improvement.
